Death | Janis Rozentāls | 1897

A white-cloaked figure bends to kiss an infant resting in its mother’s arms. Only the sickle held low at the figure’s side makes the visitor’s identity explicit. Rozentāls places the encounter beside a woodland path, among small flowers, a green jug and the mother’s discarded footwear. These ordinary details make the apparition all the more intimate. The mother’s watchful face and the child’s stillness leave the moment suspended between tenderness and the terrible finality implied by the title.
